What is the difference in the hardware?
Okay, so I had to play with computers for a very long time, but I’m a gamer, not a technician. Farthest reach of my knowledge is to realize that maybe some better, although I do not know exactly pourquoi.Maintenant, I just started shopping for a new office due to my past is the way of the dinosaurs and I’m wondering if I simply A few things to clarify. Cliff Notes, if possible, but a little more than “faster.” I do not know much, but I do not think that lack of intelligence are the questions. What makes a dual-core 2.4 GHz processor better than a 2.4 GHz P4 processor and what is the exact function of the Ram? (Please do not tell me what it means to ram, I know, its random access memory) What is the meaning of a card if graphics are a gaming graphics card is the same thing you always do, and what are some red flags in the design the devices should I be careful? (Because the material that is compatible only in the fact that it fits together, but really should not be put together) Response

a dual- Core 2.4 GHz processor better than a 2.4 GHz P4 processor? Are you serious panic and what is the exact function of the Ram? (Please do not tell me what it means to ram, I know, its random access memory) Are you not look up, what are some red flags in the design of equipment do I want attention? (Because the material that is compatible only in the fact that it fits together, but really should not be put together) Once again you can not see jusqu’àQuitter be lazy and wait for someone else you chercherCessez direFYI you’re not a true gamer since a player knows why a true dual-core P4 will be better

The clock frequency of a CPU is like engine RPM. It doesn’t tell you how big the engine is. Likewise, newer CPUs have more transistors so they do more with each clock cycle. Look up your CPU performance at passmark and you will see that the newer CPUs have much higher ratings even though the clock frequencies have actually came down since P4s.

RAM is sort like the workshop where things get done. If you have too many things running at once it gets crowded and Windows will start swapping things out to disk, making it very slow. Your hard disk is sort of like the warehouse where stuff is stored.

Multimedia graphics card? Maybe it has sound (ATI) because a HDMI connector includes sound. Or it could just be marketing hype.

Avoid overclocking. Computers crash enough without abusing the hardware. Overclocking only buys a small advantage in speed. You are better off upgrading to a faster CPU etc. For most applications you are limited by your internet connection speed and your hard drive. Be sure to get a fast SATA HDD.

In order:
P4 may be dual core – Intel is awful at naming its products. Even though newer processors, like the i3, are also dual core, and may even have the same clock speed (2.4ghz) the newer processor will also benefit from better algorithms that make it more efficient at executing instructions. If the P4 is only a single core, then the dual-core processor has an automatic advantage in that it can perform 2 different actions at once, while the single-core processor can only perform 1 action at a time.

RAM is used for storing program instructions and data. You could just load these things directly from the hard drive, but RAM is much faster than a hard drive.

Saying a graphics card is “multimedia” or “gaming” is just marketing speak. Just about any graphics card on the market today – even the crummy integrated ones in cheap laptops – can play SOME games. Just about all of them have some sort of a 3D processor as well. Obviously a gaming card will have better hardware but then, it’ll also cost a lot more as well.

1) Dual cores are more newer than p4 since p4 are outdated.

2) The function or random access memory aka ram is how much memory it can handle at the same time. The more ram the better. The recommended amount for today is 4gb of ddr3 ram also at 1333mhz.

3) It’s for people who don’t know what they are looking for to often thinking they are getting a better card, but end up not getting what they hope for. You should see those cards on youtube and see if they are for needs and purpose. Often on the internet you can easily find reviews of that card. Preferably go to tomshardware.com to get the best reviews.

4) Things you need to look out for at cheap power supplies never go cheap on them. Always get a 450watts power supply or higher over the price of a solid $ 45(preferably get ir at the price of $ 65, but $ 45 is how low you should ever go) You should always make sure they are compatilbe. Watch videos from this guy.

youtube.com/user.pcwizkid

He explains everything very well and has a site for people to ask questions and people to answers.

Other pople I would recommend is:

youtube.com/user/3dgameman

youtube.com/user/motherboardorg

youtube.com/user/techsupport1

they are great computer guys to watch on youtube.

You can also send me a message so I can help build you a computer.

One last thing make sure your ddr ram is the same type as the motherboard’s ram slots also that goes for the motherboards cpu slot/socket like am3 or 1156 sockets and so on. In newegg.com they will tell you what type of sockets you need or have on that motherboard and cpu. And this also goes for graphics cards make sure you get a pcie x16 since they are the fastest graphics cards of today and make sure your motherboard also supports pcie 16 slots.

1- the biggest difference is the dual core has one more 2.4 ghx processing core. there are other differences such as instruction sets, memory control, memory standards, FSB (not really relevant anymore), these other reasons are why a Pentium dual core 3 ghz is much slower then a dual core 2 ghz i3.

2- ram is like your short term memory. one of the advantages it has over HDD is that it can be accessed in random order, so any bit of information can be found in the same amount of time as any other. HDD= larger and linear storage. RAM= smaller and random storage.

3- not sure what you mean here. a multimedia card can mean a few things.1, it has 2 different media out puts (dvi and hdmi for example). this would make it the same as most video cards. or, it means its a tuner card. this has a coax and can capture tv, gaming cards cant.

4- google bottlenecking

even though p4 and dual core have same processing speed.like it sounds dual core is 2cores of processing levels, while p4 is a single core processing unit. Ram is a memory unit placed between the hard drive and the processor, it fetcher data from the hard drive and keeps it preped to pass in on to the processor. The amount of data the ram can transfer at a time affects your processing speed. The more that it can transfer the faster your computer is, thats simply made by installing ram of higher memory(1gb or 2gb but now even 8gb is available in the market).
